(notably a bunch of irrelevant packages (messy imho) and critically the module for running kernel is not found.
VIRTUALBOX KERNEL DRIVER NOT INSTALLED COMMANDS INSTALL
Then terminal sudo apt-get install virtualbox Ubuntu Virtual box (cheerful version with cows, turtles and penguins having a party!): 4.3.36_Ubuntu r105129Įventually using Synaptic to remove Virtualbox totally probably older than the one you roll back to Michael)
VIRTUALBOX KERNEL DRIVER NOT INSTALLED COMMANDS MANUAL
(yes, there were instructions in the manual to deal with that, and they didn't work for everybody, and you refused to admit it).įixing bugs doesn't only mean making sure that the new version, freshly installed on a virgin system, works, it also means fixing the screwups that were caused by bugs of older versions when upgrading. Then you released a new version where that was superseded by some more modern driver, but you didn't give a sh about providing upgrading users a way to fix their destroyed guest OS. This is just like the 3d-driver stuff on Windows: at some version you created a driver that had to be installed in such a way that was later impossible to remove on the guest Windows system. It's not my job to investigate the issue further, it's yours.Īll I did was always install every new version of Virtual Box by following the official instructions, so if some version left behind a "local screwup" it's the responsibility of newer VirtualBox versions to clean it up. All I know is I tried to do what I was told to do by whomever triaged the issue, and either it was impossible to do or it didn't work, I don't remember which one. Which either I was unable to clean up because I couldn't safely distinguish it from current stuff, or I did and didn't fix the issue. Yes of course it IS a local screwup, and somebody ages ago, I don't remember if here in this thread or in the forum, confirmed it was caused by some garbage left behind by previous versions OF VIRTUALBOX.
VIRTUALBOX KERNEL DRIVER NOT INSTALLED COMMANDS UPGRADE
I have no doubt a fresh install works pretty well, but you cannot expect users to always wipe out their hard drive and reinstall everything from scratch every time they need to upgrade VB. Have you ever tried on a distribution that has been upgraded several times, and where you have upgraded VirtualBox several times? I already said that DKMS works very well for us on various distributions It's only a nuisance bug, but it's been a nuisance for a long time. Thanks for your attention to this old bug. If you can suggest some debugging steps, I'll be glad to perform them on the next kernel update. Plainly shows that a parameter that's supposed to hold the name of the vbox nf file is unexpectedly empty, and so of course the file isn't found or processed.
I haven't tried to do any debugging of the vbox install scripts, but to me, the error It just happened again with the versions I cited above. I've done that many times, and each time the problem has come back on the next kernel update.
Or uninstall dkms, remove /var/lib/dkms, reinstall dkms, and try again, which amounts to the same thing. The standard advice is to remove old directories in /var/lib/dkms/vboxhost, and try again. After reboot, you have to run /etc/init.d/vboxhost setup or dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox-4.3 to rebuild them, before you can run any virtual guests, as the OP reported.

At each kernel update, the infamous error messageĪppears, and the vbox kernel drivers (vboxhost, etc.) don't get rebuilt. This problem has existed for years, and still does with Virtualbox 4.3.20 and the latest kernels (currently 3.13.0.40.47 in Ubuntu).
